It was written by Joseph Minion, screenwriter of After Hours.
Parts of the movie were filmed in and around Lake Powell and the city of Page, Arizona. In one scene, Gus, the title character, is shown driving on top of the Glen Canyon Dam (which is not allowed by the general public). The gated entrance to "Essex", a fictional state in the movie, is actually the service entrance to the Glen Canyon Dam. The Navajo Generating Station near Page is shown in several scenes as well.
The strange looking paper currency used throughout the film are slightly modified versions of (former) Dutch Guilder notes. LESS
